個人簡介

莊家俊教授於2006年及2011年在香港中文大學分別獲得統計學學士學位和公共衛生博士學位。莊教授目前擔任香港中文大學賽馬會公共衛生和基層醫療學院的助理教授、醫學院婦產科學系助理教授(禮任)以及深圳研究所副研究員(禮任)。

莊教授的多學科研究主要運用靜態和動態數學方法研究環境變化、人類行為和傳染病傳播之間複雜的相互作用。 他的研究興趣包括生物統計學、傳染病建模、環境流行病學和人工智能應用研究。 迄今為止,他已發表了 150 多篇文章,其中68篇作為第一作者或通訊作者。

莊教授是八項基金的首席/聯合首席研究員。在2019年,他獲得醫療衞生研究基金研究獎學金,在英國倫敦帝國理工學院商學院學習衛生經濟學研究。 自 2017 年起,他被任命為 Hong Kong Medical Journal 的統計顧問。另外,他還自 2023 年起擔任 BMC Infectious Diseases 的高級副主編,自 2021 年起擔任PLOS Climate的學術編輯,自 2019 年起擔任BMC Public Health(生物統計學和方法部分)的副主編和PLOS ONE的學術編輯。

自2006年起,莊教授在臨床研究及生物統計中心(前臨床試驗中心)擔任生物統計學家,在學術和工業臨床試驗的各種統計分析方面擁有豐富的經驗。 憑藉生物統計學的專業知識,他不僅在公共衛生和基層醫療學院,還在中大不同院系(包括消化疾病研究所、婦產科、中醫學院、 成像與介入放射學、生物醫學學院和解剖與細胞病理學系)提供數據分析和研究設計方面的支持和教學。他亦在不同的官方項目中擔任統計顧問,例如醫院管理局的"人口基礎醫院資源分配模型"、"外科手術結果監測和改善計劃"、"重症監護病房結果監測計劃"、"神經外科結果監測和改善計劃"等。
